Synopsis

From drone warfare to gay marriage, the modern world is full of ethical conundrums stemming from a plethora of amazing technological advances and dramatic cultural shifts.

Challenging the relativism so rampant in our society today, C. Ben Mitchell helps us thoughtfully engage our morally confused world in this introduction to ethics from a distinctly Christian perspective. Drawing on insights from key historical figures and modern Christian ethicists such as Stanley Hauerwas and N. T. Wright, this book will help you embrace a holistic approach to moral reasoning that is founded on Scripture and informed by history.

Part of the Reclaiming the Christian Intellectual Tradition series.

• Engages with influential Christian ethicists such as Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Oliver O’Donovan, Sam Wells, Stanley Hauerwas, and N. T. Wright
• Reviews the history of ethical reflection in the West, examining the influence of Aristotle, early Jewish writers, Patristic sources, and Enlightenment thinkers
• Includes reflection questions and a list of resources for further study
